Adware redirects on browser, scanned with Malwarebytes, Zemana, and Hitman Pro

This adware appears to hijacks and injects a code onto a browser tab on chrome, creating a popup when you click anywhere on the webpage which redirects to either an IP address, or an HTML link (lang.gz, utarget.ru), which redirects me to a site completely in Russian (quantum-computer.org).

So far, I have done scans with Zemana, Malwarebytes, and Hitman Pro, all which had found something, but was unrelated to the adware itself as the symptoms persisted even after deleting and restarting the computer. Along with this, I attempted scanning using Hitman Pro in Safe mode, but the computer refuses to boot up into safe mode with networking, instead booting into just regular safe mode.

I've attached the FRST and Addition log files. Please let me know if there is any other logs that I may provide.

Thank you in advance!

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

  • Right-click on
    FRST.gif
    icon and select
    RunAsAdmin.jpg
    Run as Administrator to start the tool.
    (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
  • Press the Fix button just once and wait.
  • If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
  • When finishes FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.
